Everything! The meal was excellent and although the tomato soup was 'off't the menu it replacement (cauliflower and rosemary) was probably one of the best we'd ever had.

In the heart of the historic market town of Barnard Castle, The Three Horseshoes Hotel is a 17th century building less than a mile from the River Tees. Inside, there is free Wi-Fi access for all guests, a bar and a restaurant. High Force Waterfall, one of the largest in Britain, is a 26-minute drive away.

The elegantly designed rooms at The Three Horseshoes each include an en suite bathroom with complimentary toiletries, a flat-screen TV with a DVD player, a hairdryer, a desk and a scenic view.

In the mornings, guests can enjoy a buffet breakfast. The restaurant also serves an extensive dinner menu in the evenings that can cater for those with specific dietary requirements.

From the hotel, Bowes Museum is a short 3-minute drive away. Raby Castle, a 14th century fortification surrounded by a 200 acre deer park, is also a 13-minute journey in the car.

This property has been on Booking.com since Oct 7, 2013.

You are kindly requested to inform the property in advance about your estimated arrival time. You will be able to insert this information in the section Special Requests at the time of booking or you can contact the property directly., If you plan to arrive outside reception hours, please inform the property in advance.

Only a customer who has booked through Booking.com and stayed at the property in question can write a review. This allows us to verify that our reviews come from real guests like you. Who better to tell others about the free breakfast, friendly staff, or their comfortable room than someone who’s stayed at the property?

We want you to share your story, with both the good and the not-so-good. All we ask is that you follow a few simple guidelines.

Tips for writing a great review

Give us details. People love to hear about the little things. Was the air conditioning working? Was there a chocolate on your pillow? We like long reviews, so you should try to write at least 50 words.

Be candid. Give us your honest opinion. We’ll never remove a review just because it’s negative. We promise.

Be relevant. The best reviews provide constructive information that helps other travelers make better choices. Stay on topic and avoid content that others might find offensive.

Sometimes we'll remove reviews if they include any of the following:

Objectionable material. This includes insulting or discriminatory remarks, swearing, or other offensive language.

Private information. To protect your (and others') privacy we do not display reviews that include email addresses or phone numbers.

Sensitive information. We don't display reviews that contain information with possible legal implications. This includes references to suspected illegal conduct or allusions to lost or stolen items. In such sensitive cases, please contact our Customer Service Team, who will be happy to help.

Irrelevant topics. This includes promotional content and politically sensitive subjects.

In some rare cases, neither the written review nor the review score can be displayed. This only happens if:

Key information is missing. A few review questions are mandatory. If these aren’t answered, we aren't able to calculate a fair review score, so we can't display the review.

You didn’t stay at the property. When necessary, we’ll confirm this information with both you and the property owner.

You made a mistake. Everyone makes mistakes. We won’t post yours. If you reviewed a different property from the one you booked, let us know. We can fix it so that your review shows with the right property.

The review is a fake. If there's any indication that a review is not authentic or is in any way fraudulent, it will be flagged during the moderation process.

Room very comfortable and clean

Myself and my husband decided to eat in the restaurant on Saturday evening the starters were good but when our main course was served the waiter (manager) dropped the bowl of chips on to the table so there was glass and beer all over including myself . Although he apologised there was nothing done about it . I went to the room to change and returned to the restaurant 20 minutes later and was served the same meal that was brought earlier and was told it had been under the grill yes I complained and was told they would take the food off the bill . This was an accident but the way it was dealt with by the staff in the restaurant that evening was totally unacceptable we won't be returning but I also would not recommend thie three horse shoes to anyone looking for a nice evening out

Excellent accommodation, very clean, well designed. Probably the best En-suite I have seen.
Rooms very nice and comfortable.
WiFi very good although having to use codes for each device was a hassle.
Breakfast was very very good, well served and presented.
Didn't have the opportunity to have an evening meal as food stops early on a Sunday. This was notified in advance. There are plenty of good restaurants close by.
Staff were all very friendly.

The reception, as with other similar establishments, is unattended. The bell received no response. No difficulty going into the bar for attention but other visitors might not like this.

Good sized, quiet and warm room with a large comfortable bed and reasonably sized bathroom.

Although only yards in distance crossing the open courtyard and getting to/ from the car park meant we had to wrap up well against the winter elements. Would have preferred a walk in shower to one over the bath.

Handy for shops.
Good centre for sight seeing.
Hotel excellent with good food
Recently modernised to a high standard

Unfortunately on one night of our visit the central heating did not come on.
I reported it to a member of staff but the problem was not resolved.
There was already an electric heater in the room which we managed with and extra heater was offered

The room was excellent. The food is fine although service could improve substantially.

The annexe in which the room was situated is attached to what really is a very traditional town "hotel". Hence smoke from the smokers area in the courtyard permeates into the room so a non smoker will want to keep their window closed or suffer a very unpleasant smell of smoke from cigarettes. A great shame as the room would be hard to beat in Barnard Castle otherwise!

We booked into The Three Horseshoes for three nights last week and were delighted we had done so.The accommodation was very comfortable, the food was excellent and the service was friendly and helpful. Steve and Linda Green have done a fantastic job restoring and refurbishing this old property and deserve to have a great future there. Our thanks to all concerned for a very enjoyable stay.
